The FEI has announced that the Green Glens Arena/Drishane Castle in Co Cork will host the 2017 FEI European Eventing Championships for Young Riders and Juniors. The decision was announced at a recent meeting of the FEI bureau in Lausanne.
Millstreet hosted the widely acclaimed 2014 FEI European Championships for Ponies and the success of these would have had a strong influence on the FEI’s decision.
Speaking after the announcement, Millstreet’s Thomas Duggan said: “We are truly delighted and will work to make it a very successful championship.”
